Subject: RE: Woodchuck's Revenge house concert-May 19-Maine
I can report that Jeri did at least make it to the Woodchuck's Revenge House Concert, and it was a wonderful dinner and concert.

I was delighted to hear a couple of favorite Si Kahn songs: Wild Rose of the Mountain and Aragon Mill. Then there were the outrageous parodies of Fox on the Run and Roseville Fair. There were also haunting ballads such as the one about the dance hall singer and the down and out cowboy; what's that one called? I know I've heard someone else sing it but I just can't put it together. There was a long lost Utah Phillips song and a whole lot more. I don't think they did a single woodchuck song, which is my one disappointment for the evening.

After our marathon driving, singing for three hours at the Press Room with the shanty swappers, we didn't have the energy to hang out afterwards for more singing. But we went away with two new CD's.

Any other survivors with reports?

Thanks to Mary for hosting another special event, and to Jacqui for coordinating the food.

Cheerily,
Charley Noble and JudyB
